The realisation that each random passerby is the main character of their own story, living a life just as vivid and complex as our own, while we are just an extra in their background.

Although we think that we are alone in this chaotic world, it is usually further from the truth.

People tend to find unity and strength in their weakness and difficulties, a common thread in building relationships and finding connection.

The distorted reality that we have our shit together is the biggest lie we keep telling one other.

Most of us are just trying to figure out the day, but society says we have to figure out the life.

What each of us feel is all completely relevant and on our own scale of severity in our lives.

So take this as your reminder that we are all human, and life is a journey.

If the game of life were simple, it wouldn’t be worth playing.

So I say keep playing and sonder on.
